An organisation that runs a gym in Nuneaton has said it is confident of finding a new venue in the town despite its current building being earmarked for demolition.

Nuneaton and Bedworth Leisure Trust (NBLT) has used the building on Leicester Street as its Empire Gym since 2014, but due to a new road layout, external it will be knocked down to make way for a new traffic island.

Finance Director Neil Jarrett said the charity already had plans to identify a new location.

He said: “The council have put through the planning application and it’s still in process, but expected to be approved in spring 2026. So hopefully at that point we’ll have clarity and start looking for a new venue.”
